Master Prime Blur & Smooth

I was surprised that this primer was white as opposed to clear. I generally use heavily silicone based primers because I have dry, aging skin and the silicone gives my face a dewy feel and a nice glow. This primer is like a lotion. It absorbs quickly leaving no trace of white on my face. It leaves my face feeling hydrated and not sticky or tacky at all. Makeup application is easier and smoother and my face looks fresh all day long when I use this primer first. I am actually a bit surprised at how much I like this drugstore primer since I am usually a Smashbox or Tarte primer fan and those primers are very pricey. This one is very good for lengthening cosmetic wear time and smoothing the skin. I don't know if it blurs fines lines and wrinkles but my almost 50 year old face looks great when I use it so it must be doing something right. I will repurchase when I run out. This primer has been the one I have been reaching for every time I wear makeup even though I have a variety of others I could use. Everyone's skin reacts differently to products and you may fin this primer doesn't do what you expect or want it to. For my dry skin that usually looks pale and wan by mid afternoon without good primer on, this one really helps to elongate cosmetic wear time as well as to hydrate and possibly blur fine lines a bit. For me, it's definitely worth the price and then some. EDIT: I just bought my second tube. I have been using this daily since I bought it.

This is my "magic" in this little tube :) And while make-up artists deny this and/ or simply say it does not work by blending it into your foundation, THEY ARE WRONG ... Blending my foundation with this primer works BEAUTIFULLY :)

Fills wrinkles works great

I’ve been using this primer for almost 2 years. I absolutely love it!! It feels so smooth on your face and lasts all day. My favorite thing is my makeup sticks right to it and it doesn’t feel caked on.

I would buy again

I'm on a mission to stop using makeup products containing talc, due to the industry's lack of sufficient oversight over asbestos contamination. It's just not worth it to bring those products into my home around my family. I loved Rimmel Stay Matte primer, but have called it quits after years of use. Finding a good replacement primer without talc has been a challenge for a gal with oily skin. I had a trial size of Smashbox Photo Finish Oil and Shine Control primer and was impressed. However, due to the high price tag, I did a LOT of research online, and finally bought this Mabelline product, hoping for a similar feel and effectiveness, but am disappointed. My BB cream doesn't seem to adhere very well to this primer, and is hard to blend in over top. Additionally, my pores don't look diminished at all. My T-zone feels greasy halfway through the day. I've decided to use up the rest of the tube on my cheeks and chin to at least get use out of it, and bit the bullet to buy the Smashbox primer at $45 for a 1 oz tube. I plan on using the Smashbox on my forehead and nose for oil and shine control. So many options are off the table because of talc. I'm sad, but it's important to me. I'm still hunting for a more affordable talc-less primer that's good for oily skin!

Especially if you have combo or oily skin, this is the best. I can’t use creams because they break me out. This jelly type primer keeps my skin from clogging and protects it from my makeup. The makeup looks good and the skin stays nice. I’m happy. Get yourself some!

This is one of my favorite primers. It goes on smooth. You can't even feel it on your face. Makeup goes over it well.

I thought it would make my makeup smooth but it accentuated my pores. or maybe it's fake? And that's why it did not work. I don't know but I will not be purchasing again

Muy suave, consistencia ligera y facil aplicación. Rinde bastante, no hace falta usar mucho producto para que la piel quede cubierta, reduce mucho el brillo y la apariencia de los poros dejando la piel en efecto mate.

Ich liebe diesen Primer. Er fühlt sich auf der Haut gut an und man kann das normale Make-up ohne Probleme darüber auftragen. Die Haut wird auch nach mehreren Stunden nicht fettig oder ölig. Das hat bisher noch kein Primer bei mir geschafft. Im Sommer trage ich ihn auch gern ohne zusätzliches Make-up. Das Hautbild wirkt ebenmäßiger und Unregelmäßigkeiten werden ausgeglichen. Ein großes Plus ist dabei der LSF. Das Produkt ist ergiebig und der Preis für mich angemessen.

I recently tried the Maybelline New York Face Studio Master Prime Primer and was genuinely impressed. This primer effectively blurs and smooths pores, providing a flawless base for makeup application. Its lightweight, water-based formula feels refreshing on the skin and doesn’t clog pores, making it suitable for all skin types, including sensitive skin. One of the standout features is its ability to control redness, offering a more even skin tone. I noticed that my foundation applied more smoothly and lasted longer throughout the day. Additionally, the primer doesn’t have a strong fragrance, which is a plus for those sensitive to scents. Overall, the Maybelline Face Studio Master Prime Primer delivers on its promises, providing a smooth canvas for makeup while addressing common skin concerns like redness and pore visibility. #MaybellinePrimer #FaceStudioMasterPrime #BlurAndSmooth #PoreMinimizer #RednessControl #MakeupBase #LongLastingMakeup #SensitiveSkinFriendly #WaterBasedPrimer #FlawlessFinish #CreatorFavourites2025 #CreatorFavorites2025

Great primer. Took a while to come but didn't know it was coming from overseas.
